Travel

You ever find yourself looking thru a magazine and seeing a picture of a beautiful place and saying to yourself "I wish I was there". Well, I'm guilty of that. If that were a crime, I'd be on death row for it, lol. There are tons of places I'd love to see b4 I leave this world. I'll add the pics later, the computer I'm on sucks! Here are some of them:

China

• Great Wall/Beijing. I've been interested in seeing this place since actually 2nd grade! Wow!
• Museum of the Terra-Cotta Warriors in Lintong, Xian, Shaanxi Province. Chinese history has always been my thing!
• Forbidden City/Beijing. Just once I'd love to see all the cool places in China and this is one of them
• Tianenmen Square/Beijing. I'd like to see this place because it sounds interesting. With places like Monument to the People's Heroes, Tianenmen Tower and Great Hall of the People, it has to be awe inspiring.
• Summer Palace/Haidian District. It has what is called a typical Chinese garden overflowing with lovely and beautiful plants. With me having a green thumb and a love of all things green and healthy, gotta see it!

Japan

• Mount Fujiyama. In alot of my previous art classes, when we were asked to do a painting or picture and we got to choose the content, I, for some unknown reason, always gravitated towards something of Asian ancestry, whether it be a picture of the Summer Palace at Yihehuan, which I think is the name for the area around it, or Mount Fujiyama in Japan. All I know is this place is a very beautiful location and I want to see it!
• Ginza. Here you can see authentic Japanese theatre and arts, either Kabukiza Theatre or Shinbashi Enbujo, either one giving you an authentic taste of real Japanese theatre and performing arts. Oh yeah, I'm up for that!
• Asakusa. Has all the charm of Japan from long ago, buy yourself traditional Japanese items and foods. Cool!
• Imperial Palace-East Garden. With me having a good green thumb, and love of plants, I'd love to see this!

Italy

• The Coliseum/Rome
• Trevi Fountain/Rome
• Rialto Bridge/Venice
• Palazzo Vecchio/Florence

England

• Abbey Road Studios. With me being a big Beatles fan, I'd sure love to see where they made their music.
I'd get 3 more people I know who like the Beatles and I'd go there with them and we'd re-create the Abbey Road image to pay respect to the Beatles.
• Tate Modern. If this is an art museum, I'm okay with that. I've always had a love of art.
• London Bridge. cool looking

Australia

• Queensland Zoo. Pay my respects to Steve Irwin, better known as the Crocodile Hunter.
This is why I'd visit this place, to pay my respect to Steve Irwin, aka, The Crocodile Hunter. He was too young to die.
• Sydney Opera House.
• Ayers Rock. Northern Territory. It's cool and I wonder if it's bigger than in the pics I've seen?
• National Gallery of Australia. It's an art museum, sweet! I loooooooooove art!
• Sydney Harbour
• Bondi Beach. Lay out and relax, maybe see Hugh Jackman there, lol? Man he's hot!
• Great Barrier Reef/Queensland. I hear it's a  lovely site
• Lightning Ridge. Go mining for opals, my birthstone!

New York

• Empire State Building, I'd love to go to the top and see all of New York from up there.
• Statue of Liberty. I'd love to see it because I'd get those thoughts running thru my head saying "This is what the immigrants first saw when they entered the US all those years ago."
• Ellis Island Immigration Center. I'd love to see this place because all the immigrants came here and became US citizens
• Museum of Modern Art. What can I say? I'm an art nut.
• Museum of Jewish Heritage. I'm part Jewish, so that explains alot, it has to do with the Holocaust. That particular topic has always fascinated me.
• The Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum. I'm a fan of the books they released.
• Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum. I wanna see who they have wax figures of.

Dream jobs

Oh yeah! Dream Jobs! I know everyone out there in the blogosphere has that dream job that they dream of landing! For me, dream jobs consist of:

1. Tattoo Artist
2. Writer
3. Bartender
4. Jewelry Maker
5. Dancer
6. CD Cover Designer
7. Graphic Designer
8. World Traveler
9. Photographer
10. Teacher
11. Artist
12. Business owner

Those are just some of the dream jobs I have. It doesn't go in any certain order or anything, just listing ones I like. Tattoo Artist would be a cool job because if you really think about it, tattoos almost tell a story. A writer, definitely cool. I'm creative in that sense, I love to write short stories, I've never published them or anything, I usually just write short stories because they're fun and I guess I have an overactive imagination, which for the field I'm in definitely is not bad. Bartender would be cool because you can entertain while serving patrons really awesome drinks. Photography has always been an avid fascination of mine, so if I couldn't find a job as a Graphic Designer, Photography, baby! I love taking picures, I'm a massive picture hoarder basically, I have a lot of pictures of family that I love putting in scrapbooks and stuff. Traveling allows you to explore the vast lands of our world and explore rich, indulgent cultures, and explore new lands. And if I were to open a business, it would be a retro/vintage store, the 1960s and 1970s and 1980s are making a comeback and they are finding a new generation with the younger crowds. Younger people nowadays are beginning to discover bands like The Grateful Dead, Aerosmith, The Beatles, The Doors, The Rolling Stones, etc. Younger people are beginning to discover the treasures of the 1960s, 70s, 80s, etc, at least I call them treasures, not sure what everyone else may call them. But I'm kind of a dreamer I guess, and there is alot of stuff I"d looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove to do in this short little lifetime of mine, I mean, no one lives forever, so during my time here on Earth I'd love to accomplish everything I can. Live life to the fullest is one of my many mottos.

Not too long ago, on Facebook, someone put a 30 day photo challenge thing on there and this person had everyone putting 15 facts about themselves on it, well here's 15 facts about myself for those who read this:

1. My mom's convinced I'm a reincarnated hippie
2. The Rolling Stones and The Beatles are my 2 fave 60s British rock bands
3. In my eyes, Mick Jagger is the sexiest man alive to come out of England! And if I were his exact age, I'd marry him in a heartbeat if he asked! Sorry, but for being 67 years old, he sure does have a sexy body still!!!!!
4. I, for some reason that's still unknown to me, find Asian, Italian and English men totally sexy!!!
5. I have a stepdad named Greg, a mom named Brenda, a dad named Steve and a sis named Jessie
6. In my spare time, I love to read. If I don't have a book to read or something to read, I lose my marbles and go nuts from boredom!
7. I'm a huge art nut. I love art of all sorts
8. Someday, I would love to live in 1 of 5 places: England, China, Italy, Japan, Australia
9. I want to learn a foreign language other than Spanish
10. I want to fall in love
11. I want to get a tattoo
12. I want to travel the world
13. I'm only 5'8'' tall
14. People say when I was younger I looked like Bette Davis because of my blonde hair.
15. I'll listen to virtually any music except for rap/hip hop. I absolutely refuse to listen to that insane headache causing music!!!!
16. I want to go to a concert before I die for someone I actually listen to!
17. I'm a huge fan of flip flops
18. If you were to try and find me in the town of Bellevue, Ky, where I live, you would most likely find me at home either A. cleaning the house with the windows open and see me jamming out to The Rolling Stones singing right along with Mick Jagger, B. sitting on the front porch reading a book about The Beatles that I own or C. Sitting on the front porch reading a book about The Rolling Stones.
19. I can be very chatty at times and other times, be just downright silent as the grave. It's because I'm a rather shy person and don't like talking much.
